HAWC+/SOFIA Multiwavelength Polarimetric Observations of OMC-1
David T. Chuss, B-G Andersson, John Bally +35
We report new polarimetric and photometric maps of the massive star-forming region OMC-1 using the HAWC+ instrument on the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA).…
SOFIA Polarization Spectrum of Three Star-Forming Clouds
Erin G. Cox, Giles Novak, David T. Chuss +6
The dust emission polarization spectrum -- how the polarization percentage changes with wavelength -- serves as a probe of dust grain properties in star-forming regions. In this pa…
Magnetic Field Alignment Relative to Multiple Tracers in the High-mass Star-forming Region RCW 36
Akanksha Bij, Laura M. Fissel, Lars Bonne +9
We use polarization data from SOFIA HAWC+ to investigate the interplay between magnetic fields and stellar feedback in altering gas dynamics within the high-mass star-forming regio…
HAWC+ Far-Infrared Observations of the Magnetic Field Geometry in M51 and NGC 891
Terry Jay Jones, Jin-Ah Kim, C. Darren Dowell +29
SOFIA HAWC+ polarimetry at $154~\micron$ is reported for the face-on galaxy M51 and the edge-on galaxy NGC 891. For M51, the polarization vectors generally follow the spiral patter…
SOFIA Far Infrared Imaging Polarimetry of M82 and NGC 253: Exploring the Super-Galactic Wind
Terry Jay Jones, C. Darren Dowell, Enrique Lopez Rodriguez +22
We present Far-Infrared polarimetry observations of M82 at 53 and and NGC 253 at , which were taken with HAWC+ in polarimetry mode on the Stratospheric…
The Twisted Magnetic Field of the Protobinary L483
Erin G. Cox, Giles Novak, Sarah Sadavoy +16
We present H-band (1.65 m) and SOFIA HAWC+ 154 m polarization observations of the low-mass core L483. Our H-band observations reveal a magnetic field that is overwhelmingly…
